  1. No need for public toilets if there are private toilets everywhere and accessable for everyone like in shopping malls, restaurants, cafes, bakerys. I can’t remember when I used a public toilet. However, it’s important that you can use the toilet even when you’re not a customers. And that acceptance can differ from country to country.

  2. Iceland seems to be the toilet paradise. If you’re in Italy better plan your stops carefully.

    Most mosques in Turkey have public toilets; some are free. Also, there are many shopping malls.

    I found data from the Istanbul Municipality website that public toilet locations. Although it shows only toilets in Istanbul, I bet that number is bigger than the OPs map shows.

  4. Are these numbers accounting for all “toilets available to the public”, thus including bars, cafes, restaurant, malls etc., or do they count only those who are 100% public (like the door opening directly in to the street)?

  5. Europeans will look you in the eyes and argue that this is why they should be excused for peeing (and shitting) on the street. Dirty bugs.

  6. Yup thats what i’ve been talking about years ago.

    Lack of toilets or toilets are there, but closed (especially at night)
    but later complaints that someone peed somewhere on a wall or in the gate.
    “Wonder what has led to this”

    Do people working in the town hall have no bladders?

  7. I do not remember I saw a single public toilet when I visited Iceland.

    On the other hand, they are everywhere in Paris.

  8. I can count on my fingers the number of times that I used a public toilet. I prefer to use my own toilet. I also don’t go out much. :))
